SALVATION ARMY KETTLES STOLEN IN MOLINE
December 10, 2010

HELP POLICE - BE PROACTIVE
October 15, 2010
It will soon be our favorite time of the year in law enforcement. Oddly, we like the snow and cold of January and February because bad guys tend to stay in the house where it is warm. Until the snow and cold, car burglaries, armed robberies, and even bank robberies will take us into the holidays. You can help police by keeping your eyes and ears open and ready to write down what you see. Keep a small notepad and a pen close to you in the car. If you see a suspicious vehicle or people running toward cars racing from a parking lot WRITE DOWN THE PLATE. So often our witnesses try to remember the plate only to give us the first number or letter. If you find yourself sitting in a parking lot, look around. Be aware of your surroundings and help us by becoming the eyes and ears of the community. Of course we will pay you up to $1000 for any information that leads to a felony arrest when you call the Crime Stoppers tip line 309-762-9500.
